BORN IN BILBAO

PLACES. I was born in Bilbao. I studied at the University of Deusto (in Bilbao) and taught there for a few years too. Now, when I go, I am nearly one more tourist, taking pictures of the Guggenheim and other wonders of this era.











Nací en Bilbao. Estudié en la Universidad de Deusto (en Bilbao) donde fui profesor unos años también. Ahora, cuando voy, soy casi un turista más sacando fotos del Guggenheim y otros edificios de esta era !

  3. Hello:
    But your pictures are a wonderful record of a changing city as well as serving to inform those, like ourselves, who have not been fortunate to have visited.

    But for now we shall have to content ourselves with the shores of Lake Balaton to which, on impulse, we are taking ourselves for a few days armed with piles of books and minus the computer!

  4. I am just an ignorant American and did not know of Bilbao. But at least I have a passport and have been outside the borders of this country. When I visit Spain I want to walk those stairs. I want to see Bilbao.

  6. Our Peter left Bilbao and moved to San Sebastián. There he got the lovely window we all know pretty good. Since then, he only comes back to Bilbao when it is only a must. Therefore he is a scab and I will never forgive him. But on the other hand I profit from his window when I visit him at SS.

  15. Bilbao es mucho Bilbao, aunque el título me recuerda al famoso disco de Springsteen...
